Wipmolen Zoeterwoude

Large Mill is a hollow post mill just south of Zoeterwoude -Rijndijk . The mill dates from the 17th century and is built for the drainage of the Great Polder. The Rhenish Mill Foundation came into possession of the Great Mill in 1973 and restored the mill in 1975 . The top of the mill was thereby tarred black, but afterwards again painted in the original blue-gray color. The mill grind in circuit , ie the mill is no longer connected to the bosom , but just pumped around the water .
